Recruiting studies
- NCT07578545Recruiting
Pain management after minimally invasive chest surgery
This study tests whether combining a specific type of chest surgery (using small cameras) with numbing injections around nerves reduces pain and the need for strong pain medications after surgery. Researchers want to see if this approach helps patients recover better with less opioid use.
Antalya, MuratpaşaAges 18–75 - NCT07561411Recruiting

This trial tests two types of nerve-blocking injections given during breast removal surgery to see which one better prevents long-term pain afterward. Both are given alongside general anesthesia and may help you recover with less chronic pain.
BeirutAges 18–80 - NCT07561853Recruiting
Nerve block comparison for pain relief after mastectomy
This study compares two different numbing treatments (nerve blocks) to see which provides better pain relief during and after breast surgery. If you are having a mastectomy, this trial may help reduce your pain after the operation.

Antalya, MuratpaşaAges 18–65 - NCT07556536Recruiting
Nerve block comparison for kidney removal surgery pain
This trial tests two different types of numbing injections (nerve blocks) to see which one works better at controlling pain after open kidney removal surgery. You would receive one of these blocks during surgery to help reduce pain and the amount of strong pain medication you need afterward.
Al FayyumAges 18–65 - NCT07537036Recruiting

This trial tests a pain-relief nerve block (a local anesthetic injection near the spine) during planned pilonidal sinus surgery. The goal is to reduce pain after surgery and improve recovery.
IstanbulAges 18–65 - NCT07535697Recruiting
Pain relief methods after lung surgery: two approaches compared
This study compares two ways to reduce pain after minimally invasive lung surgery (VATS). Researchers test whether numbing the chest wall with ultrasound guidance works as well as numbing nerves seen during surgery to help you recover more comfortably.
Offenbach, HesseAges 18 years+ - NCT06752252Recruiting
Nerve blocks for pain after hernia repair in children
This study compares two types of nerve blocks (paravertebral and erector spinae) to see which one provides better pain relief after hernia surgery in children. The goal is to help children feel more comfortable after their operation.
El SharkiaAges 2–12 - NCT07504705Recruiting
Comparing two nerve blocks for pain after gallbladder surgery
This trial compares two types of nerve blocks (intertransverse process block and erector spinae plane block) to see which provides better pain relief after gallbladder removal surgery using small incisions (laparoscopic cholecystectomy).
Konya, KonyaAges 18 years+ - NCT06765772Recruiting
Nerve blocks for pain relief during tummy tuck surgery
This trial compares two types of nerve blocks (with numbing medicine) to reduce pain during and after tummy tuck surgery. The goal is to see if combining two blocks works better than one block alone.
Cairo, Cairo GovernorateAges 21–60 - NCT07472296Recruiting
Comparing nerve blocks for heart surgery pain relief
This trial compares different types of nerve blocks to see which works best for managing pain after heart surgery through the breastbone. It may help reduce the need for strong pain medications.
Bursa, NilüferAges 18–80 - NCT04646707Recruiting
Nerve block to reduce opioid use after neck spine surgery
This trial tests whether a targeted back/neck numbing injection (an erector spinae block) can help reduce the amount of opioid pain medicine needed after posterior cervical spine surgery. It also aims to support an “enhanced recovery” pathway so patients may recover more comfortably and potentially faster.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18–80 - NCT07452627Recruiting
Comparing Nerve Blocks for Sternotomy Pain
This study compares three different injection techniques (nerve blocks) to reduce pain after heart surgery that cuts through the breastbone. The goal is to find the best way to control pain with fewer side effects.
Bursa, NilüferAges 18–80 - NCT07446868Recruiting
Comparing two nerve blocks for pain after mastectomy
This trial compares two nerve-block techniques (SPSIP and ESPB) to see which one provides better pain relief after breast cancer surgery. The goal is to reduce pain and improve recovery after a modified radical mastectomy.
Cairo, Cairo GovernorateAges 18–65 - NCT07442721Recruiting
Comparing two types of nerve blocks for hip replacement pain
This study compares two different nerve block methods to see which provides better pain relief for people having a partial hip replacement. It will help doctors choose the best way to manage pain after surgery.
El Fayoum Qesm, Faiyum GovernorateAges 50–90 - NCT07411521Recruiting
Comparing two pain relief methods after planned cesarean
This trial compares two ways to manage pain after a planned cesarean section: one combines a spinal and epidural injection, the other is a newer type of nerve block. The goal is to see which provides better pain relief with fewer side effects.
Bursa, NilüferAges 18–45 - NCT07400640Recruiting
Comparing two treatments for postherpetic neuralgia pain
This trial compares two procedures—a nerve block injection and a radiofrequency treatment—to see which works better for lasting pain after shingles. It aims to help people with persistent pain in the neck, chest, or lower back.
AnkaraAges 18–80 - NCT07390448Recruiting
Comparing two pain block methods for mastectomy
This trial compares two nerve block techniques to control pain after breast cancer surgery. If you are having a mastectomy or breast-conserving surgery with lymph node removal, this study may help reduce your pain and improve recovery.
CairoAges 18–60 - NCT07396545Recruiting
Comparing two types of nerve blocks for pain after stomach cancer surgery
This trial looks at two different pain-blocking injections (nerve blocks) to see which one works better for pain after keyhole stomach cancer surgery. If you are having this type of surgery, joining could help us learn which block gives you better pain relief.
Yinchuan, NingxiaAges 18 years+ - NCT07396558Recruiting
Nerve block for lung cancer chest pain
This study tests a new way to deliver pain medicine through a small tube (catheter) placed under the skin near your back, so you can get long-lasting relief from cancer-related chest pain at home. It is for people with advanced lung cancer whose current pain treatments are not enough.
HanoiAges 18 years+ - NCT07367568Recruiting
Nerve block comparison for mastectomy pain relief
This trial compares two types of nerve blocks to help manage pain during and after modified radical mastectomy. You may qualify if you are a woman between 18 and 65, have a healthy weight, and are scheduled for this surgery.
CairoAges 18–65 - NCT07354581Recruiting

Nerve blocks for pain after chest surgery
This trial tests two types of numbing injections (nerve blocks) to control pain after chest surgery done with a camera. It aims to find which block works better so you can recover more comfortably.
